ADDIS ABABA, May 6 — (U.P)— Italian forces of occupation swung into action today, repulsing bandit attacks on the American and French legations and driving marauding bands to mountain hideouts.
On the southern front Gen. Ro-dolpho Graziani’s “hell on wheels” columns occupied Ethiopian fortifications at Jijiga, which had been abandoned by their commanders, Dedjazmach Nasibu and Wahib Pasha, Turkish general. They drove a wedge between Jijiga and Harar, which is expected to fall momentarily.
Bandits Suffer
Bands of Shiftas (Ethiopian bandits) suffered heavy losses when they attacked the reoccupied American legation.
Other scattered fighting was witnessed from the French legation. Italian detachments fought bands of Ethiopians in the Place de L’Etoil Subsequently a company of Askaris was ordered to protect the French legation from bandits.
Giuseppe Bottai, former mayor of Rome, was appointed governor of Addis Ababa. He entered the capital at Badoglio’s side yesterday. Bottai relinquished his post as may- j or of Rcme to volunteer for service with black shirt legions in East Africa several months ago. He won an officer’s commission and the confidence of Badoglio, who recommended his newly confirmed appointment to Premier Benito Musso- ; linL
Reports Occupation
Graziani, reporting Jijiga’s occu- j pation to Badoglio, indicated he ex- ! pected to enter Harar late today.
Fighting in the Jijiga-Harar area was sporadic. Resistance to the Italian advance was feeble. Ethiopian armed bands were dispersed whenever they were encountered.
Italian bombing airplanes flew over Harar this morning, dropping leaflets announcing the Italian occupation of Addis Ababa and the imminent arrival of forces of occupation in Harrar. Although the Italian planes flew very low, not a I shot was fired against them. Pilots j reported the populace, deserted by! all ranking Ethiopian southern front commanders, shouted welcomes.
Answering telegrams of praise; from H Duce, Badoglio radioed:
“In the name of the troops I had 1 the honor of commanding and leading to victory, I thank your excel- j lency. We all are happy that we have met the expectations of our country in our work.”
Ben Ames fabove) United Press staff correspondent, who with James L. Rohrbaugh (belcw), another United Press staff correspondent, were the only American newspapermen in Addis Ababa when the American embassy was under seige by the Ethiopians.

The Hamlin Garland exhibit, 1 which opens in the treasure room of the Doheny Memorial library today, gives an intimate glimpse into the life of Hamlin Garland and his contact with all the important literary people of the 19th and 20th century.
Known as the dean of American letters, Hamlin Garland has for almost 20 years been associated with the American academy of arts and letters. Garland, who was bom on a Mid-Western farm, has become one of the foremost literary I figures of this age.
The treasure room exhibit deals mainly with Garland’s life and his • early friendships with many liter-j ary people. The letters and cards written between Garland and such men as George Bernard Shaw, Rud-yard Kipling, Theodore Roosevelt, Joseph Conrad, and Mark Twain are all present in their original | forms.
A methodical man. Garland kept several complete diaries. A page in ; one of these diaries tells of Garland dining with Theodore Roosevelt who was then assistant secre-| tary of the Navy. Impressed with Theodore Roosevelt’s stirring vitality and his obvious intelligence, Garland predicted that he would go far in his field.
One of the features of the exhibit is a book written by Garland called “A Son of the Middle Border,” which describes accurately the life on a Mid-Western farm. It is in reality a description of Hamlin Garland’s early life. Other books written by Garland are included in the exhibit. Some of these are in manuscript form.

ADDIS ABABA, May 6 — (U.P)— Italian forces of occupation swung into action today, repulsing bandit attacks on the American and French legations and driving marauding bands to mountain hideouts. On the southern front Gen. Ro-dolpho Graziani’s “hell on wheels” columns occupied Ethiopian fortifications at Jijiga, which had been abandoned by their commanders, Dedjazmach Nasibu and Wahib Pasha, Turkish general. They drove a wedge between Jijiga and Harar, which is expected to fall momentarily. Bandits Suffer Bands of Shiftas (Ethiopian bandits) suffered heavy losses when they attacked the reoccupied American legation. Other scattered fighting was witnessed from the French legation. Italian detachments fought bands of Ethiopians in the Place de L’Etoil Subsequently a company of Askaris was ordered to protect the French legation from bandits. Giuseppe Bottai, former mayor of Rome, was appointed governor of Addis Ababa. He entered the capital at Badoglio’s side yesterday. Bottai relinquished his post as may- j or of Rcme to volunteer for service with black shirt legions in East Africa several months ago. He won an officer’s commission and the confidence of Badoglio, who recommended his newly confirmed appointment to Premier Benito Musso- ; linL Reports Occupation Graziani, reporting Jijiga’s occu- j pation to Badoglio, indicated he ex- ! pected to enter Harar late today. Fighting in the Jijiga-Harar area was sporadic. Resistance to the Italian advance was feeble. Ethiopian armed bands were dispersed whenever they were encountered. Italian bombing airplanes flew over Harar this morning, dropping leaflets announcing the Italian occupation of Addis Ababa and the imminent arrival of forces of occupation in Harrar. Although the Italian planes flew very low, not a I shot was fired against them. Pilots j reported the populace, deserted by! all ranking Ethiopian southern front commanders, shouted welcomes. Answering telegrams of praise; from H Duce, Badoglio radioed: “In the name of the troops I had 1 the honor of commanding and leading to victory, I thank your excel- j lency. We all are happy that we have met the expectations of our country in our work.” Ben Ames fabove) United Press staff correspondent, who with James L. Rohrbaugh (belcw), another United Press staff correspondent, were the only American newspapermen in Addis Ababa when the American embassy was under seige by the Ethiopians.

The Hamlin Garland exhibit, 1 which opens in the treasure room of the Doheny Memorial library today, gives an intimate glimpse into the life of Hamlin Garland and his contact with all the important literary people of the 19th and 20th century. Known as the dean of American letters, Hamlin Garland has for almost 20 years been associated with the American academy of arts and letters. Garland, who was bom on a Mid-Western farm, has become one of the foremost literary I figures of this age. The treasure room exhibit deals mainly with Garland’s life and his • early friendships with many liter-j ary people. The letters and cards written between Garland and such men as George Bernard Shaw, Rud-yard Kipling, Theodore Roosevelt, Joseph Conrad, and Mark Twain are all present in their original forms. A methodical man. Garland kept several complete diaries. A page in ; one of these diaries tells of Garland dining with Theodore Roosevelt who was then assistant secre- tary of the Navy. Impressed with Theodore Roosevelt’s stirring vitality and his obvious intelligence, Garland predicted that he would go far in his field. One of the features of the exhibit is a book written by Garland called “A Son of the Middle Border,” which describes accurately the life on a Mid-Western farm. It is in reality a description of Hamlin Garland’s early life. Other books written by Garland are included in the exhibit. Some of these are in manuscript form. ! necessary the present action Chairman of the committee will ___„ _ . „__'__„ ,, _ be Omar Hartzler, and his com- SAN FRANCISCO, May 6 T.P mittee will comprise Vernon Archi-Califomia exhibited its new Demo- Wa'lnce Dorman, Fred Gros. cratic strength in giving President j an(j Roosevelt an overwhelming victory ( ‘_ in Tuesday’s presidential primary, and Republicans registered approval of the Hoover drive for uninstructed convention delegates.
